The pediatric risk of mortality Ⅲ(PRISM Ⅲ) score and pediatric critical illness score(PCIS) are physiology-based scores for assessing the severity of illness and mortality risk in pediatric patients.The PRISM Ⅲscore was revised version of the PRISM and was first developed in 1996.It includes 17 physiologic variables subdivided into 26 ranges.It had been validated by numerous studies worldwide and is the most widely known and used at pediatrics intensive care unit(PICU).The PCIS was first developed in 1995 in China,which included 10 physiologic variables.It had been validated by numerous studies nationwide and was simple,effective and suitable to Chinese situations.The scoring systems also can be used for quality assessments,grading the severity of illness in clinical study,and(stu)-dies of ICU resource utilization and management.There were no such study for validating the PRISM Ⅲ at present,comparing the performance of the PRISM Ⅲ score and the PCIS in China.

[Objective]To investigate the chondrogenic ability and feasibility of bone mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs) in three kinds of cellular carrier.[Method]BMSCs were separated and cultured into the third generation,which were cultivated in three knids of carriers by multi-point injection into and dropping on the surface of carriers(fibrin collagen sponge,group A;fibrin collagen sponge and FGF,group B and gelatin sponge,group C).All samples were analyzed after four weeks.[Result]There were a few chondrogenic cells in group A,much more chondrogenic cells in group B,and no cells in group C.According to analysis with SPSS 10.0 software,There were more cartilage cells(92.75?10.57) in group B than in group A(36.45?8.34).It was statistical different(P

OBJECTIVETo study clinical effects of inversive LISS (less invasive stabilization system, LISS) plate combined with steel wire for the treatment of Seinsheimer type V subtrochanteric femoral fractures.

METHODSFrom January 2009 to Janurary 2012, 11 patients with Seinsheimer type V subtrochanteric femoral fractures were treated with inversive LISS plate combined with steel wire, including 8 males and 3 females, ranging in age from 35 to 61 years old (averaged, 51 years old). Causes of injury: 8 patients caused by accident and 3 patients caused by falling down. According to X-ray examination, all the patients were type V subtrochanteric femoral fractures and were treated with LISS plate combined with steel wire. Merle d'Aubigne scores were used to evaluate therapeutic effects on hip.

RESULTSThe mean period of follow-up was 16 months (ranged, 12 to 28 months). All the patients obtained bone union for average 3.8 months (ranged from 3 to 4.3 months). There were no complications such as deep infection,deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and bone nonunion. According to Merle d'Aubigne scores, 7 patients got an excellent result and 4 good.

CONCLUSIONInversive LISS plate combined with steel wire for the treatment of Seinsheimer type V subtrochanteric femoral fractures is satisfactory, Which can provide stable fixation for fracture end and provide an ideal internal fixation method for treatment of this kind of fractures in the future.

Ginsenosides are the abundant secondary metabolites in American ginseng (Panax quinquefolium), it could be released into soil through root exudation and decomposition during plant growth. This study determined ginsenoside contents in American ginseng cultivated soil by HPLC. Three ginsenosides, Rb1, Rb2 and Rd, were detected in the rhizosphere soil of 3-4 years old American ginseng cultivated in Huairou District, Beijing, and their contents were 0.80-3.19 mg x kg(-1). Correspondingly, the contents of the three ginsenosides in soil solution were 4-16 mg x L(-1) at field water-holding capacity of 20%. According to the field soil test data, we designed the concentration of ginsenosides for bioassays (0.2-125 mg x L(-1) in solution or 0.2-125 mg x kg(-1) in soil). The results showed that radicle lengths of American ginseng were reduced by 6%-23% in solution containing 0.2-125 mg x L(-1) ginsenoside extract, and a significant difference was observed at concentration of 125 mg x L(-1) (P < 0.05). The shoot lengths of American ginseng were not significantly inhibited by 0.2-125 mg x L(-1) ginsenosides extractions. After 20 days of growth in nutrient solution amended with 25 mg x L(-1) ginsenosides extraction, plant height of 3-year-old American ginseng seedling was decreased by 28% compared to the control, and the biomass of aerial parts was also reduced by 50% (P < 0.05). However, the growth of newly-grown fibrous root was not significantly inhibited. Comparatively, when American ginseng embryos were cultivated into sterile or non-sterile soil, neither radicle lengths nor shoot lengths were significantly affected by 0.2-125 mg x kg(-1) ginsenoside extracts. In conclusion, ginsenosides showed autotoxic effect on growth of American ginseng radicle and adult seedling, however, this effect was weakened in field soil.

As a clean, efficient, and renewable energy, hydrogen is regarded as a promising alternative. Because of using biomass as substrate, microbial fermentative hydrogen production can meet the need of sustainable development. The factors affecting the process of microbial fermentative hydrogen production, are analyzed in this paper on the basis of microorganisms, substrates, products and operative parameters. The parameters related to hydrogen production from organic wastes, are also mentioned.

Objective To propose a stream-media technology based on the new transmission technology. Methods Firstly,we explored the advantages and disadvantages of exiting PACS image in LAN (Local Area Network) and WAN (Wide Area Network) and then expounded distance diagnosis related to HIS and PACS,VPN technology,wireless network applications,more points consultation applied technology. At last,we made an analysis of the characteristics of the stream-media transmission technology. Results The characteristics of low bandwidth occupied,high security,and high scalability of stream-media transmission technology fit the needs of PACS development.

·AIM: To evaluate the recurrence rate and safety of amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) augmented with mitomycin C (MMC) compared with amniotic membrane transplantation alone during the pterygium excision.·METHODS: We took a meta-analysis on this program.Pertinentstudieswereselectedthroughextensive searches of the Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE,CBMdisc, CNKI. Pooled estimates were carried out in RevMan software V4.2.·RESULTS: Six trials reported postoperative recurrence rate of pterygium, included 882 eyes, three trials reported the complications. The results of meta-analysis showed that recurrence rate of AMT plus MMC group was 5.41％,AMT alone group was 16.89％, relative risk (RR) was 0.32, 95％CI ranged from 0.19 to 0.56, Zwas 4.06, P< 0.001. Two trials reported early complication as punctata keratitis, the incidence rate of AMT plus MMC group and AMT alone group were 17.14％ and 0.00％, RR was 12.11,95％CI ranged from 1.62 to 90.76.·CONCLUSION: Amniotic membrane transplantation with MMC is associated with lower recurrence rate compared with amniotic membrane transplantation alone in pterygium excision,whether accompanied a higher risk with adverse events need more investigation.

To assess the impact of the operational simulation training system on the cultivation of ophthalmic students.
●METHODS: Four hundred and eighty ophthalmic students in China Medical University from 2009 to 2011 were chosen as objects and divided into two groups at random. The students in the experimental group used operation simulation training system combined with traditional teaching methods, while the students in the control group only used traditional teaching methods. We examined the operation skills and the confidence of all the students half a year later.
●RESULTS: The improvement of the operation skills during the suture technique examination, and the confidence for operation technology were significantly different in two groups. The basic skills of the students in the examination groups improved apparently during the operational simulation training and they were full of confidence to their operational technique.
●CONCLUSlON: The operational simulation training is useful for promoting the clinical ability for ophthalmic students and should be widely popularized.
